To start they did not have the ingredients to make 2 of the drinks we tried to order. We ordered a top shelf margarita that tasted mostly like sour mix. The fajitas ordered tasted ok, but not hardly enough meat. mostly over cooked vegetables. I was highly disappointed. We used to frequently eat at El Paso, but not anymore. read more

3 solid stars. It's not the best Mexican food by any standard, but it's filling. The chips and salsa are complimentary. The chips are decent, but the tomato-based salsa is very good! There's also a mild salsa (with large chunks of onions) and black refried beans that comes with the chips. Both were decent. I ordered the chicken enchilada burrito without cheese and sour cream I added a side of rice since the burrito doesn't come with rice inside. The rice is almost certainly precooked and isn't cooked at the restaurant. It has peas and carrots in it like something in the frozen section at the grocery store. It wasn't bad, but certainly nothing to brag about. The waiter was friendly and attentive. I would come back since the food is so low cost. read more

Just ok. Not high quality food. Margaritas made with cheap mixes. The staff was pleasant but too thinly stretched. The place needs a good cleaning. read more

After flying in from Chicago we were hungry. This was a recommendation a stranger. What a HUGH DISAPPOINTMENT!!!!! I ordered the Caesar salad. Since when does a Caesar salad come with tomatoes stale croutons and shredded iceberg lettuce! The margaritas were koolaid. This is absolutely not an authentic Mexican restaurant The server kept coming saying everything OK and walked away didn't want the feedback I guess. Horrible read more

Below average Mexican food. Just not high quality food. I would not eat here again. I only gave two stars instead of one star because I did not get food poisoning from the food. The wait staff was quick, some of the other staff was grumpy. read more

I have eaten at this place over 20 times and it never disappoints. Every time I go I order something different and it's all been delicious. My favorite thing here is the shrimp ceviche, best one I ever had. The staff is always friendly and helpful and this restaurant is always clean. The items on the menu are reasonably priced as well. I love that you get complimentary chips with 2 salsas and a bean dip as a starter while you look over the menu. Free refills on drinks as well. There's also 2 for 1 margarita specials and those are excellent! I will definitely keep coming back! read more

El Paso Mexican Grill - Sampler appetizer - Mexican Near Me - Houma, Louisiana

Very good food and great service. We had a party of 12 on a Friday night and they got us seated quickly and service was great. I got a combination plate with an enchilada and a tamale and both were very good. One of the children in our group ordered some shrimp tacos that were too spicy for them, and our waitress got them replaced with some that were less spicy very quickly. read more

Ordered a watermelon margarita. It came back some milky frothy drink. It was disgusting. Not at all like the picture. Had hunt down our waitress to take our order. We sat there for about 20 minutes until she showed up. I ordered the beef arrechera. It was okay. Had a weird taste to it like they put cinnamon on it and overcooked. It was like eating leather. The rice was sweet liked they dumped sugar in it. I don't plan on ordering this again. Our waitress was horrible and acted like she didn't want to be there. read more

My son was working in Houma today and stopped here for lunch. He asked if a menu item had tomatoes in it and was told no. It was the wrong answer and he is paying the price, literally. He is too sick to drive back to Baton Rouge and may have to stay at a hotel tonight. Hopefully, he is not sick to the point of dehydration this time. Please, when a customer asks about an ingredient it may not be just because they are picky. Real health issues may be involved. read more

First time here. Service was ok, not great. The chips and salsa were below average. Chips were cold and unsalted, they weren't terrible but tasted like the bargain brand chips you might get at a grocery store. Tiny salsa bowls that don't hold enough salsa. Food was just ok. Not great but not bad. It'll do if you need a Mexican food fix, otherwise I suggest sticking with Cajun and Seafood; much better options locally. read more

Great food and strong margaritas! Selling point was three sides of salsa/blk beans with chips! I have had complimentary salsa and chips before but to be offered 3 and with fresh chips that were not greasy? Will go again when in Houma The chk fajitas were good too read more

Some of the worst Mexican food I've ever had (And I've had many from many different states and cities and Mexico). Might as well have been a Mexican TV dinner. I did like one of their sauces, that was it. It seems to be a very popular restaurant in this area but I'm not sure why I assume it's because people don't know real Mexican food. I don't know what they do to their Chile Rellenos but there's some kind of tasteless Velveeta creamy cheese instead of something like a melty Mexican cheese inside. Will never return. read more

I recently moved here and am looking for somewhere with great chips and salsa and margaritas, and this place is not it. For eating, my enchiladas were amazing! I just probably won't be returning when the reason I go sit down at a Mexican restaurant is for chips and salsa lol. I'm 100% serious, I think it came out of a jar from the grocery store. read more

The place is really dirty. Holes in the wall. Looks like they haven't deep cleaned in a long long time. Tamales were very greasy and fell apart. Cheese enchiladas were a greasy mess. Nothing seemed fresh. Chips and queso were good. read more

I got chicken enchiladas, and the chicken tasted like it came out of a can. They offered to replace, so I got steak quesidilla, which was better. I just really like quality chicken enchiladas and this place was just a terrible disappointment for that. read more

My favorite Mexican restaurant in Houma! Everything they prepare is awesome, and the Queso is the best in town as well. I eat here on a regular basis, usually is my weekly cheat meal! read more

OMG thank you for being there. We had heard at the hotel that there was a good mexican restaurant in houma, and I found you... I got take out, so I cannot really say much about the dining experience, but your staff was super friendly and the food came out fast. cute decor, and a big party was on one side celebrating a birthday. this place looks like it probably gets rockin on the weekends. see you next time we are in town. read more

This is my favorite Mexican spot in Houma. I went for lunch today but my review would be about the same every time I go. You are always seated promptly by friendly staff. With the exception of today the food normally arrives quickly. Today took a bit longer for some reason. But that's not normally the case. In any case, 2 salsas and a bean dip meet you at the table, which is why I love to come here when I'm starving. I've never eaten a bad dish. Though I get the same thing often, I do change it up at times. I love the tacos and enchiladas. The tamales have recently become a favorite. And they do have the best fajitas around. Aside from the taco stands it's probably the closest to authentic here. read more

I come here every time I'm in town for predictable and tasty Tex-Mex. The food is pretty much standard Texas/Louisiana style Mexican...the kind with white cheese, rice and beans, and lots of food loaded on your plate. I steer toward the combo platters...enchiladas, tacos, chili rellenos, and tostadas are all good. Portions are humongous, the price is cheap, and best of all, there's never any wait. I have no idea how they make any money with such a huge footprint. read more

Goid food and friendly wait staff, liked the Fajitas, and cold beer. I have eaten at the Cut Off location and was just as good. Definitely would go back and also would recommend to my friends read more

Absolutely love this place. Great Food, Great Service and Pleasant Atmosphere. There is one manager who is always on top of EVERYTHING (The best manager I've seen at a restaurant and ALWAYS seems to be there) and a "SpeedyServer"who is always a pleasure to watch deliver the food to the tables. My favorite place to eat in Houma. read more

I really liked that they bring you 3 different dips instead of just plain salsa. The service was very friendly and fast, and the nachos and tortilla soup we ordered was very good. Our go to Mexican place when we're in Houma. read more

My husband and I dine at this restaurant quite often. Normally the food is excellent, however our visit on 08/22/2015 left a lot to be desired. They bring out tortilla chips and three bowls of dips, one of the dips was very bland. I ordered a chili relleno and a beef burrito. The relleno was good. The beef in the burrito had no flavor, no authentic Mexican flavor or aroma to it. The quacomole that we had tasted like plain mashed avocado. Flavor lacked, presentation was excellent (the dishes did look eye appealing), and service was great. read more

Absolutely great food. And our waitress Miranda was very sweet and got us whatever we needed in a timely manner. Will be back(:

Ordered chips and dip and it was horrible. I have never had bad chips and dip. Chips were stale and the queso was watered down. The worst part was that we barely had cheese in the container. Called and spoke with someone and he said this is normal this is how it comes. I'm very disappointed in how the situation was handled. Will not be returning. read more

One of my favorite Mexican restaurants in Houma. I really like that they bring you not 1, but 3 dips with your chips. I haven't ever ordered something that I didn't like. It's always fresh & fast. The restaurant is large & roomy. If we lived a little closer to the west side, I would eat here alot more often. read more

The food was awesome the service they are Johnny on spot with and everyone comes by to ask if there is anything they can do for you. Waiter was great, happy smile and very attentive. The portions of food were so much not one of us could clear the plate read more

The meat was well cooked , there was just too much onion with no flavor . The side dish which is rice, beans and all of that not a fan of it didn't like them at all so didn't touch that plate at all . I'm Mexican and I wish the food was just more Mexican . read more

Well i do love the food, the chips and dip assrtment but however any normal day a small reg. margarita is 6.50 but when we asked what the drink specials were, they said two for the price of one on margaritas, so when i asked the price he says 7.50 so naturally i said that must be large ones, he says no its small ones but you get two for 7.50 but any normal day that same one is 6.50 hmmmmm, doesnt seem right, but food is good and almost too fast sometimes!!! read more

Great good, always fresh, great prices, fast service. You have to try the mexican burger here, everytime i say that to someone they say "you ordered a burger at a mexican place" and i do, and when i take them there, they see why. Great food all the way around, appeteizer sampler, burger, fajitas, all great. read more

Fajitas were OK but the fixings fell short. No cheese. Only enough sour cream for maybe one fajita very little guac. Average service. Better places to spend your money. read more

Really excellent. Had a chicken chimichanga - delicious. Superb black bean salsa with the chips.

Don't eat here if you have any type of food allergy. A friend had the steak fajitas to go and found shrimp hiding under the steak. The only thing that management cared about was getting paid for the shrimp he was given. read more
